Soon after the death of Gilgit-Baltistan Governor Dr Shama Khalid, efforts have been launched by the vested interests to pick a person for the post who can loyally work to protect and promote the interests of Islamabad. Opportunists have also started trying to jump the bandwagon and using their connections to have some favor in getting their own choice on the seat. Every group is

As the monsoon rains have brought widespread havoc in all parts of the country, the Independence Day of Pakistan on Aug 14 went without any funfair. Anyway, Gilgit-Baltistan is still long way away from the blessing of freedom as the United Nations is not taking any interest in fulfilling its pledge of holding a plebiscite to decide the future of the region in accordance with wishes of its

Even the idea, let alone passage, of the so-called 'condemnation resolution' bulldozed by Gilgit-Baltistan Legislative Assembly (GBLA) in its seventh sitting was farce and beyond the jurisdiction of the house. No country or even a part of it notwithstanding its size and standing in the world can think of passing a resolution challenging its own survival and legitimacy. The resolution moved

Thank God Baang-e-Sahar as a weekly has completed its three years of continuous publication. The journey which it started as a monthly about 10 years back from the cosmopolitan city of Karachi is continuing irrespective of pressure, fear, intimidation and oppressive measures by the power that be.
